Workshops

Build a shared foundation

Get all your experts on the same page by introducing them to key communication principles they can start applying right away.

Our group training sessions range in length from a 60-minute online session to a one- to two-day onsite intensive. Whatever the format, these aren’t lectures. They’re guided conversations anchored in simple frameworks and tools your people can put into practice as soon as they get back to their desk.

All our workshops include examples tailored to your industry and the specific communication challenges your experts are wrestling with.

Paula Mendonca, PhD

Director of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Memorial University of Newfoundland

“We wanted to get a series of examples to showcase experiential learning in the arts. Dawn took a series of 45-minute interviews that I had with practitioners from across the country and turned them into punchy, 500-word exemplars.

Experiential learning is a heavily term-filled area. Dawn understood the content but also understood how important it was to position it in a way that would appeal to all our stakeholders. She asked really insightful questions, which was extremely helpful. I can't think of one other person that could provide the service that she did.

We wouldn't have been able to create the output Dawn provided, even with a lot of time. I would encourage people to read examples of what Dawn writes and think about how it makes them feel, how clear it is. When we sent the examples for review, many of the interviewees said how energizing it was to read them.”

Paul Thornton, PhD

Innovation Partnerships Manager at New Brunswick Innovation Foundation

“Dawn Henwood is an amazing coach and an engaging presenter. NBIF has worked with Dawn to offer a series of writing workshops that empower academic researchers to improve their writing for broader audiences. Each of these online workshop sessions have been extremely informative and much more of an active discussion than merely a webinar with questions at the end. Dawn is a fantastic resource for the innovation ecosystem.”
